Navigraph

Navigraph is a cornerstone subscription service for the flight simulation hobby, providing the data and tools necessary for realistic, real-world navigation. It's considered an essential add-on for any simmer who flies IFR (Instrument Flight Rules) or wants to follow proper procedures.

Their service consists of two main components:

1. Navigraph Charts: This is their all-in-one application (available on desktop, web, and tablet) that gives you full access to the entire global library of Jeppesen navigation charts. This is the same professional, up-to-date chart data that real-world airline pilots use. It includes approach plates, airport diagrams (SIDs/STARs), and enroute charts for both IFR and VFR.

2. Navigation Data (AIRAC): A Navigraph subscription provides monthly "AIRAC cycle" updates. This is the raw data (the "road map" of the skies) that populates your simulator's GPS and FMS (Flight Management System). This ensures that the waypoints, airways, and procedures in your simulator and add-on aircraft perfectly match the current, real-world charts.

Navigraph also owns and operates Simbrief, the hobby's most popular free flight-planning tool. A Navigraph subscription seamlessly integrates with Simbrief, unlocking the latest AIRAC data for all your flight plans.
